From the age of 9 I wanted to be a part of the Indian army and thankfully my height(6ft)and strong physique supported the dream.Also da passion i had in my heart for the country while my friends wanted to fly abroad for their further studies and job made me get deeper into my ambition.
I turned 17 and fortunately
passed my boards.Now the next step was to fill all forms for admission into college.As a person who does what she feels for I decided to fill form for the Indian army entrance exam but I dint...coz when u want to move one step people around you pull you 100 steps back....
I still remember;it was 19th May'07 and a Retd Major general who stays across the street;visited my dad.Dad out of curosity(i regret it though)asked him"ab batao kya isse army join karni chahiye?"and quick came da reply "nahi".
It left my eyes wide open...I felt like throwing this uncle out of the house.especially when he has served the country previously;how could he even say like this?thus taking him to be my enemy i decided to attack him with my machine gun(my questions)i asked "why?"and he answeres"kyunki Indian army ladies ke liye safe nahi hai"
Before I could ask why I got a be silent look from my mom....
Later;I got the following information-women need to undergo alot of social and physical constraints.This statement makes me wonder what can be worst dan giving birth to a child?
Also i dont understand that when we talk of equal opportunity why dont we provide admission to women in Nda?How can we decide as a prejudice dat women cant b successful in da indian army?
Do you agree dat women should be allowed to join it?atleast one chance should be given...
if so then leave in ur comments and i shall reply to u.
